A Collier County inmate is facing more charges after deputies say he attacked a jail deputy.

John Duncan, 40, was told Thursday he would need to move cells when he became irate and starting cursing at the deputy while refusing to move, the report states.

As the deputy walked away, Duncan allegedly attacked him, even trying to get a punch in before he and the deputy fell to the floor. The deputy then struck Duncan several times in an attempt to get him under control.

It eventually took five deputies to contain the inmate. He was taken for medical treatment.
